The binary packages of foomatic-filters are deprecated as foomatic- filters is discontinued upstream. foomatic-filters upstream provided foomatic-rip and beh which are now both provided by cups-filters upstream and development is continued there. So please do not install foomatic-filters of foomatic-filters-beh.
Anyone can help me how to correctlky represent the discontinuation of foomatic-filters in the cups-filters package and how to get foomatic- filters out of the distro? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to foomatic-filters in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1563686 Title: package foomatic-filters-beh (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/cups/backend/beh', which is also in package cups-filters 1.8.3-2ubuntu1 Status in foomatic-filters package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: conflicting files ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: foomatic-filters-beh (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-16.32-generic 4.4.6 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-16-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 Date: Wed Mar 30 01:13:43 2016 ErrorMessage: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/cups/backend/beh', which is also in package cups-filters 1.8.3-2ubuntu1 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-03-29 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Beta amd64 (20160323) RelatedPackageVersions: dpkg 1.18.4ubuntu1 apt 1.2.9 SourcePackage: foomatic-filters Title: package foomatic-filters-beh (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/cups/backend/beh', which is also in package cups-filters 1.8.3-2ubuntu1 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/foomatic-filters/+bug/1563686/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
